interesting I upload these pictures I took in the lower area of \u200b\u200bthe city of Encarnación Paraguay because I was very surprised by that stage and go live today in the commercial area of \u200b\u200bEncarnación. For example that businesses continue to work with some 20 centimeters of water in the streets, sidewalks and of course in business and the international cars and buses continue to ply the streets flooded.
Just today I read that www.territoriodigital.com/nota2.aspx?c=0388133457214954 EBY and has completed the place will move the shopping and giving them eight days to move all, but my question is if everyone is willing to move, because this situation occurs quite some time.
Street main which is still circulating the international collective, cars, motorcycles, trucks, etc.
As many they were promised today I approached material on Jesuit Ruins of Trinidad of Paraguay, considered World Heritage Site. In that country, in the department of Itapúa displaced in various cities, are the reductions of Trinidad, Jesus, Santa Maria de Fe, Santa Rosa, Santiago, San Ignacio and San Cosme and Damian. On this occasion I had the opportunity to know Trinidad is one of the most conserved in the region together with those of San Cosme.
Trinidad reduction is in the city of Parana Trinity 30 km from Encarnación Paraguay VI taking the road to Ciudad del Este. The path to start is in very poor condition due to construction and renovations that the city is suffering, but after a few kilometers improvement. Before coming to Captain Miranda has a toll (paid one way) which costs 5,000 Guarani, the change in weights about 4.5.
The entry costs 25,000 Guarani reductions, approximately $ 22 Argentines, per person and includes access to Reduction Trinidad and Jesus (located about 12 km ). The site of the city is similar to that of all reductions, a large central courtyard and around the homes of Aboriginal people, workshops and protruding from the other buildings: the Church. this reduction in the church is much larger than the others, and you can still appreciate more accurately the engravings on the walls, design, and other impressions left by the Jesuits.

With funds sent by the German government, The bell tower was restored and is open to the public so they can enter the visitors from the top may have a privileged view of the entire reduction. Sighted from there the beauty and magnitude of what yesterday was a great civilization and today are only ruins , parts better preserved than others.

really if I have to recommend a reduction of all I'm with Trinidad, because you can appreciate more all the details of Jesuit architecture of the time because they are in better condition than those of Argentina (keep in mind that the San Ignacio Mini were reconstructed in 1940, only found in the natural state of Loreto).
The vastness of the Cathedral
Baptismal water Stack
particular recommend a visit to 100% (for all those who value a common historical past of the region) for a walk which will not be sorry, yes should be prepared with a good team tere because the heat at this time is overwhelming.
First of all a very Happy New Year to all readers ... followed it to apologize for having neglected the blog in recent months, you can imagine, New Year, in order to undertake, take tests, finally a set of responsibilities I removed all the free time. But here I am with much as looking forward to starting 2010 with everything, wanting to discuss, to speak, to criticize (constructively) and offer the reader "that was always there, information about my red earth.
's commentary today is based on the few days I was in the city of Puerto Iguazu, enjoying family and friends. Were days when it suffered from a lack of everything that we could imagine: repeated cuts of light, water, lack of gas, and finally the lack of fuel. These services are essential for life, and we can not imagine no light, no running water or sparkling ... although for many years people knew manages to live without them today would be impossible.
light and water in these areas that are too hot, they are extremely necessary, and purpose seem to make much more heat (afternoon nap) the service stops, it stops working in many of the neighborhoods of the city of cataracts. It is a problem that always existed in this city, but further increased in recent years due to population growth in that city. The unsustainable population growth must go together with services offered in the city and for them (more water treatment plants, power lines services, paved access, etc..) But it seems not to matter this time because has been suffering for years and so far unresolved. That if I read before the holidays that bought EMSA a new electrical transformer that promise through this, stop with the power outages ... but ... I reckon not yet installed because the light was cut again and again several times a day.
respect to gas, all feared that during the holidays is over the bottle and not have to buy, now I read in local newspapers that People go to the neighboring country to buy the carafe because gas is not available Iguazú. And almost at my last days, there was almost no fuel at service stations, long queues were seen in the distance, one Brazilian and one lane for the Argentines ...
I really hard to understand how a tourist town where they come to visit thousands of people from all over the world not been thinking about these issues as necessary our leaders and representatives, perhaps they would not cause embarrassment?. I think the slogans of growth proposed by the government of Misiones Iguazu still not arrived (or come very slowly). Are not directly in line with such a world wonder that the city has, and it is a pity.
Posadas Honestly I turn to a bitter feeling, but when you get to notice some changes people-few-more expected to come to my city. It is perhaps this comment will be cause for much criticism but that is what a person thinks one day he lived in Puerto Iguazu and back whenever you feel the people instead of going forward and evolve backwards, regresses in many ways.
A greeting and we're seeing in the next post I hope will be more courageous than the latter ...
